> Maybe a nitpick but i doubt dhcp is going to hive you a local dns server Nearly every consumer-grade router on the market hands out IP configurations where said router is configured as a DNS server (the router then usually is configured to forward requests to the DNS provider of your choice, which is usually the ISP's DNS servers, depending on the technical ability of the person that set the router up). This is useful for things like accessing devices on your local network that have a GUI accessible via a web browser by hostname rather than IP address or, in the case of Netgear, intercepting requests to routerlogin.net and redirecting them to the router's configuration page instead of some page on the Internet. If FireFox starts to ignore the OS-level DNS configuration, then these things are going to break and consumers who don't follow these things closely aren't going to know why or how to fix it.
